I havent seen the movie but the show makes me "yell-laugh" out loud by myself.

**Jace** · 03-06-2007, 07:22 PM

i agree, the movie was not NEAR as good as Borat on Da Ali G Show

there were parts that were funny as hell, but overall it wasn't worth seeing twice

**Poon** · 03-06-2007, 07:23 PM

my friends dad bought me a copy from pakistan 2 weeks ago and we were positive it was pirated, looks like it might have been real lol

**woj** · 03-06-2007, 07:26 PM

exactly...it just seemed too forced to fit some kind of storyline for a movie

unfortunately he is too overexposed so let's hope for bruno!

well, I think the issue totally comes in when you take a 6 minute character and do 90 minutes of comedy featuring only him

if you could take Borat the Movie and splice out the "in between" shots and just feature the inner "skits" of the movie, then it would well worth the effort to watch again, but there was so much fluff and time wasting parts that it wasn't near as good as I they hyped it up to be

**DBS.US** · 03-06-2007, 07:42 PM

Fear not, that Borat DVD you bought at Best Buy is not pirated, although appearances are somewhat deceiving.

As it turns out the DVD release of Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan was made to look low-budget. Apparently there is not a word of english on the packaging. The DVD cover also appears to look color-copied (complete with off color tones, slightly blurred company logos, blurry text and moire pattern/lithographic scans. Now that?s funny.

jep jep...

I was totally hyped before the movie came out

the cut scenes like the one in the store with the cheese and many more that came out on youtube...I was laughing my ass off...I watched them soooo many times...

just not the same if you change a format

Reminds me of system of a down:

**AsianDivaGirlsWebDude** · 03-06-2007, 08:47 PM

Borat has already grossed over $250 million worldwide before the DVD has even his the market. Not bad for a movie that only cost about $18 million to produce...

He pocketed that as well. 18 million on that????? More like a few hundred grand IMHO and even that figure maybe to high.

**IceMaster** · 03-06-2007, 09:52 PM

For a plain faced DVD and some shitty text? Nothing probably. They outsourced it to a sweat shop in India...

I love seeing this thread just after the CBC announced today that Canada is responsible for $6 billion dollars of lost revenues as a result of bootlegged movies, lol.
